Abstract :
Introduction:
The concept of disease is a fundamental principle of health. Therefore, the goal of this review was to examine the
Etiology of the disease in the ancient Ayurveda and Yogic philosophy. The specific verse related to disease and its
classification in ancient texts is reviewed.
Aim:
To study the Ayurvedic concept of disease and the yogic philosophy of disease.
Methods:
The originally collected verses on disease from the Sanskrit language were translated into English/ examined, and
interpreted, and the translated verses were grouped into 1. The concept of health 2. Cause of disease, 3. Classification of
disease within each text.
Discussion:
In the current analysis of the ancient text's perspective on disease explanation, collaboration is achieved through textual
avoidance.
Conclusion:
The overall finding revealed diverse and distinct perspectives on Disease across the texts. Future researchers will be
able to examine and compare the causes of disease from ancient perspectives to better understand disease.
